Spruce Top & Black Walnut Body

The Tanglewood DBT-SFCE-BW-LH features a stunning spruce top that offers a broad dynamic range, versatility, crisp articulation, and accommodates numerous playing techniques with ease. The wood itself is quite elastic in nature, which resonates well whilst remaining strong, and provides a focused, clear sound of deep lows, warm midi-range, and bright singing highs. The spruce top is contrasted beautifully by the black walnut back and sides that produce a unique earthy tone which records in a distinctive manor. Black walnut is less dense than rosewood and mahogany, yet still very resonant, delivering excellent tonal balance, earthy trebles, bright attack. The LH Super Folk is ideal for a flat-picked sound and mellow finger-style playing, perfect for folk enthusiasts.


Mahogany Neck & Rosewood Fingerboard

The mahogany neck is topped with a rosewood fingerboard that offers a warm, bright, sparkly tone that really shines through when playing finger-picking techniques. Rosewood fingerboards also offers a smooth and energetic play. The neck is finished in natural open pore satin for a sleek, smooth, and stunning appearance. The mahogany neck offers durability, strength, and added rich-warmth blended with great playability for the players pleasure. Mahogany is used frequently as timber for guitar necks because it provides durability, and the wood responds greatly to picking styles, strumming, and various finger techniques with equal ease.


Tanglewood's Super Folk Body

The Tanglewood DBT-SFCE-BW-LH Discovery features one of Tanglewood's most iconic body shapes, the Super Folk. Tanglewood began by shaping the guitar to specs of the modern industry for great playability, we now have the well-crafted super folk cutaway. The shape was first introduced over 25 years ago on their award winning TW45 Sundance Pro guitar. The super folk cutaway body has become a must have among folk players because it's a bigger version of traditional folk guitars, offering more volume and tone, in a comfortable shape. The cutaway design enables players to reach more challenging chords with ease. The super folk can handle many genres with equal ease, and will cut through a live mix greatly.
